Why waste your time? in Minox/Miniature Posted July 12, 2001 I have an EC. I have had a C and a III but prefer the automatic nature of the EC. I have never considered these cameras toys. They are cameras and quite impressive to be sure. I also have a collection of Minolta 16s but ignore them now as I cannot get the film anymore. A real shame. My favorite Minox story is this: I was living in Hawaii in 1991 and went to the ProBowl. The night before the game I went to one of the better restauraunts and guess who was there? Chuck Knoll, George Sifert and 2 other NFL coaches and their wives eating dinner. And guess what? I had my EC with me and took a few snaps with no one knowing a thing. Could not have done that with my Minolta 35 mm. Steve
